FRESHMAN CLASS III.

20 ORANGE AND BLACK FRESHMAN III. President—Jeannette Buck. Treasurer—Louisa Grant. Secretary—Will Monroe. Editor—Jeannette Buck. On entering the High School we found the new work hard, but remembering our class song, ‘ ' Onward, Forever Onward,” we have overcome many obstacles in the road to knowledge. At Christmas our teacher of Latin and History who was also our room teacher, Miss Herr, left us; and, while regretting to lose her, we were glad to wel¬ come Mrs. Creasy in her place. We were pleased at the end of the first term to have some of our friends from Freshman II join us. The picture of General Lee offered by Col. Van Metts for an essay on the calendar picture, “His last farewell,” was won for our class by a member. A large per cent of our class have made the honor roll during the year. Jeannette Buck has led the class, while Joseph Lewis holds first honor among the boys.

The year for this class after the novelty wore off has been uneventful. The only event of importance was run¬ ning the guantlet where we received our first taste of High School life. This, however, did not give us sufficient warning, for if we had nothing harder than to run the guantlet every day we should not mind it. However, the prospect for a prosperous second } r ear begins to look bright after all; but, although the vacation is near, the end of our work seems a long way off. We hope that a large delegation of us will be sent to the Soph¬ omore Class; but no one is certain of promotion until af¬ ter the finals.
